“…Here, E = K eff V is the energy barrier, M S is the saturation magnetization, H k is the anisotropy field, K eff is the effective perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) energy density, V is the volume of the magnetic layer, k B is the Boltzmann constant, and T is temperature. 3,4 In particular, a perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction (p-MTJ) suitable for PMA characteristics is a key factor to obtain a low J C and a high thermal stability, which cannot be achieved with in-plane MTJ (i-MTJ). 3 A variety of PMA systems including an L1 0 alloy, multilayers (MLs), and rare earth-transition metal (RE-TM) alloys have been extensively employed to yield outstanding PMA performance.…”
